?Narrated Abu Omamah (radiAllahu anhu): that Allah's Messenger (salallahu alayhiwasalam) was asked, O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is heard (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala), he said the end of the night and at the end of the obligatory Salat (prayer) [at-Tirmidhi] This time is after saying 'At-tahyat' , and before making Tasleem (finishing prayer)?

I wanted to know how can we interprete that the meaning of end of obligatory salat is after saying 'At-tahyat' , and before making Tasleem (finishing prayer)? Why does it not mean after making Tasleem (finishing prayer)?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-sal?mu `alaykum wa-rahmatull?hi wa-barak?tuh.

The hadith in reference is:

Tuhfatul Ahwazi 2/169

The hadith states that dua after farz salat is accepted.

The hadith is general.

It also refers to dua after making salam upon the completion of the salah.
